In an all-white room with a pungent aroma of drugs makes anyone reluctant to stay in it, including Indira.

But now the woman was lying weakly with an infusion hose adorning her wrist.

"Say you hate hospitals but you yourself are positioning yourself in this place" said a young man who faithfully accompanied.

"You're a fool Ra! You always think of other people's feelings but never think of your own"

"sorry"

Dirga continued to nag himself even though he knew that the person he was talking to would not answer all his words.

"I'm sorry I took care of you"

The flat face and the solid wall that he built collapsed when he was in front of Indira. He continued to apologize and blame himself.

"It's not your fault Dir" the voice of someone who had just entered the room shocked Dirga just before he could control his expression back.

"This is one of Dirga's aunty, so far the aunt never cared about Indira's condition"

"You know why it's still on hold?" syndical Dirga.

"Tante did not know, every time aunty saw Indira's face then at that time also the shadow of Andira's face appeared. Aunt Gabisa said that hate"

"hate? Aunty realized that what made Andira died was not because of Indira's fault!" pissed Dirga. "Tante is actually Indira's real mother, isn't she?"

"Yes aunty understand, auntie know if it's not her fault!" point the middle-aged woman towards the weakly lying Indira. "But aunty can't accept that Andira died and if you want to know that aunt is not Indira's real mother!" firmly the woman was in tears.

"Bu-not the birth mother? What auntie mean?" Dirga.

The flashback

Lira and Ryan were expecting their first child after a five-year wait. All the equipment they prepared without anyone being missed. But such happy moments a big problem hit the household ark that they had intertwined for so many years.

Zira who is none other than a good friend of Lira suddenly present in their lives brings a ruin with her.

In a pregnant condition Zira came to see Ryan who was in his office at the time. Zira is holding her responsible for her condition where the father of the baby is Ryan. Unbeknownst to Lira, the two of them have an illicit relationship that they should never have.

At the same time, Lira came and accidentally heard all their conversations.

Zira who first learned of Lira's whereabouts was startled and rushed to see Lira.

"This is not what you think it is"

"Go!" snapped Lira.

"Lira I'm sorry" Zira's pinta was full of guilt. "I didn't mean to do it..."

"Stop! You traitor" pressed Lira still can't believe that the two people she trusted the most were the ones who stabbed her in the back.

"Lir I'm sorry" said Ryan trying to reach Lira but always brushed aside.

"I'm sorry? Hahaha do you think you're sorry to turn things around?" circus Lira. "Ryan now you choose, my son or the son of this actor" he pointed to Zira.

"Lir please..."

"PI-LIH" stressed Lira.

"I can't be. You two mean the same thing to me and they are my flesh and blood" Ryan said, trying to give understanding to the two women before him, especially to his legal wife, Lira.

"If it's your decision, I'll go!" lira said with tears that were no longer able to be contained, she ran away leaving the two people who stuck thorns in her heart.

Ryan and Zira did not stay silent. They both chase Lira and it certainly attracts the attention of other employees because they feel there is something strange with their superiors.

"Liraaa stop!" zira shouted as she saw a large truck speeding towards the Lira.

"Zira don't!"

Bruukkkc...

Accidents in a row cannot be avoided. The huge truck that lost control hit hard all that was in front of it. The accident cost five lives.

"Water...Lira wake up Lir!" call Ryan trying to wake his wife who's been sprawled on the hard asphalt.

Across the street a woman was trying to get up and protect her stomach.

"Ziraaa" cried Ryan.

Ryan's condition is really messed up. Where he was faced with two choices between two women who were pregnant with two flesh blood.

Ryan carried Lira's body to where Zira was.

"Ryan..."

"Yes?" Ryan tightly grasped Zira's hand with one more hand holding Lira's body in his lap.

"Ka..kalo later I have to go..."

"You've got that talk"

"To-please take care of this child for example he can still survive" said Zira stammered before losing consciousness.

"Ziraa woke up" shouted Ryan.

Arriving at the hospital Ryan waited in front of the ER room, for him his life was completely chaotic because of the mistakes he made.

"How's doc?" ask when the doctor comes out of the room.

The doctor explained the second condition in which Zira had to undergo a cesarean section because the condition would endanger the baby. While the Lira does not suffer heavy injuries and can be immediately transferred to the nursery.

"Lira are you conscious?" ryan was worried.

"Zi-zira?" ask Lira.

Ryan was bowed in recalling how Zira was currently.

"Where are you going?" asked Lira when she found Ryan who got up and walked away from her towards the corner of the room.

"Lir knew his name was Indira, he was calm in heaven" Ryan said, bringing the baby in his cradle closer to the Lira.

"What do you mean?"

"I beg you to treat this child like your own, however he is my flesh and blood"

And that's where all the stories start until the events that took Andira's life.

Flasback off

"So aunt Lira wasn't Indira's real mother?" ask Dirga again to make sure.

Only a nod of the head was received by Dirga in response.

"Enghh" lenguh Indira who has been kissed.

"Is sick? Whereabouts? Tell Ra" Dirga says she's so worried about the girl.

"Lebay" said Indira still trying to adapt to the light in the room.

"This isn't my room, is it?" ask Indira to parroted.

"Your room"

"Dir's different kok?"

"Your room is in the hospital"

"Huh?"

"Lemot anyway" said Dirga.

Indira was still unaware of the whereabouts of others in the room.

"Are you better, baby?" lira's voice diverts Indira's attention.

"When has Mama been here?" indira asked confused because she knew Lira was abroad attending an event.

"Just how did it just a little story with Dirga" said Lira smiled warmly.

Indira glanced at Dirga but the person in the lyrics just sniffed his shoulders and averted his eyes.

"Rara wait here first yes, Mama wants to talk to Dirga outside" Pinta Lira who is asserted by Indira.

Outside the room Lira asks Dirga to promise her about Indira's real mother's true identity.

"Dirga, auntie hope you can keep this secret" said Lira. "Tante asks you to promise the same aunt to always be on the side of Indira because you know your own aunt can not always be there for him" he added.

Dirga just silently gave no answer other than the flat look and cold face unfriendly he showed.

"Tante hopes you can understand the state of aunt" he added. "Say aunt, please say hello to Indira aunty" said Lira before leaving Dirga.

"Who's sins are affected by whom? The universe is sometimes too cruel to surprise" Dirga commented before returning to Indira's room.
